Curcumin Naturally Slows Tumor Growth Says New Study

Yet another study has demonstrated the powerful anti-cancer benefits of curcumin, a substance that has been found to positively affect over 530 other diseases. Derived from the spice turmeric, which is also gaining widespread attention for its many benefits, curcumin is traditionally used by many cultures as a flavor-enhancer. A similar study actually found curcumin was capable of reducing reducing tumor size by an astounding 81% naturally.

Published in Cancer Research, scientists found that curcumin helps to slow the growth of tumors in prostate cancer patients by ‘jamming’ receptors that enable the tumor to grow and spread. Conducted by Dr. Karen Knudsen and colleagues from Thomas Jefferson University, the study was published in the journal Cancer Research. Perhaps the most telling part of the study is that it used “physiologically attainable” doses. This means that the doses were within reason, and even these doses that are within reason are highly effective against cancer.

Turmeric and curcumin alike are shaping up to be the next super anti-cancer substance, right up alongside vitamin D. In fact, the benefits go way beyond just prostate cancer and tumor reduction. Study leader Dr. Karen Knudsen explains how the real benefits of curcumin are just beginning to be fully understood:

“This study sets the stage for further development of curcumin as a novel agent to target androgen receptor signaling. It also has implications beyond prostate cancer since p300 and CBP are important in other malignancies, like breast cancer. In tumours where these play an important function, curcumin may prove to be a promising therapeutic agent,” she said.

The benefits of curcumin and turmeric have not yet hit many mainstream individuals, or even many health conscious readers. As the spices continue to be heavily researched, more and more benefits will be acknowledged as they become increasingly recognized for their countless medicinal properties. Using curcumin and turmeric in your food, or picking up a quality liquid turmeric supplement can ultimately be an essential part in your natural health transformation.
